Elections! Objections!

I am so happy that everyone has voted and we finally know who is in and who is out. I am happy that Arlen Specter is out! (Dem-Pa) I was born in Pa and had grew up there most of my life. I had the rare occasion to meet the man. I didn't find him all that great. I could tell he was a person who didn't like to tell the truth. I must say I proudly voted. I chose to vote for the folks that are honest, sincere and really want to change and help get us out of all this crap we are in. I really don't understand the "tea party" thing. Are the British coming? In all seriousness, when I casted my vote yesterday, I didn't vote because of the party I am in. I voted for honesty, integrity, and sincerity. As a proud American I have a strong objection to allowing a party or a person dictate to me who I should or shouldn't vote for. I personally would like to have this country going in a better direction.  Health care is a good start. Bailing out these huge corporations, not so good. Are we doing enough for Haiti and New Orleans? My cousin is in the Marines. I have a brother in law that is in the Air Force. My husband was in the Navy. I would like to see the troops come home soon. I would like to see military wives and families get the respect and assistance they deserve. When our men and women come back from being so brave in their duties. I would like to see someone make sure their Mental and Physical health are looked at and treated immediately. Where is the vocational rehab for our troops? If we spent less time trying to be greedy and be # 1 and more time concentrated on what this country needs, what the people really want.  Why can't we solve to eradicate homelessness or hungary Americans.  This would be a good start. Any objections?

New here

Hello,

I am new to this site. I have been able to read some work and I must admit how comforting and excited I feel about how many talented folks who can really write. I am so glad to be here and I would like to thank Blogit for creating something like this. This is a really inspirational idea. Good for you Blogit. I think I will have a great experience being part of the writers. have a blessed day everyone! And Inspire and be Inspired!~(my personal quote).

Are you Kidding me?

When I went to the store the other day to pick up some peanut butter. I was so hungary for a peanut butter and banana sandwhich, I noticed that it was $ 4.35 for peanut butter!

are you kidding me? When did peanuts go up?  is Jimmy Carter our president again and no one has told me? lol  no. seriously..the food prices are going up, and everyone is getting short natured with each other. There are some areas where I live that folks are being nice and neighborly. For the most part though, I think I am personally fed up with the political same old stuff. Does anything really change? Maybe the folks in our Nations capital need to do a random act of kindness for the opposing party. I have a great first act...be nice, play fair and be HONEST!!

This guy that I work with kinda asked me to come over and get drunk with

him. I actually first asked him if he was going to go get drunk tonight and party, next thing I know he asks me party with him. I kinda made a joke of it and ignored it, I dont know if he was serious or joking or what to make of it. Now I still have to work with him. What do you think I should do?

did you get my last message

As his friend you should understand that

he has the right to hit on a girl. its a guy thing, very few guys would resist that opportunity for any friend. I wouldnt have gotten upset with him on a normal day. But being hormonal I would have originally felt sorry for myself, and angry that he couldnt be there, but than I would understand.

I want an opinion on this

Your having a really bad day and you're in need of a friend but your friend is too busy hitting on some girl or whatever.. Some of my other friends respond to this with "he's a guy" what do you think? Is that normal guy behavior and whether it is or not should it be excusable? I posted in my rantings and ravings blog about the issue by the way. Seriously though I want to hear other opinions from guys and gals alike.

How about an inexpensive reader-only subscription? (spreading the word)

How about an inexpensive reader-only subscription?

Obviously, I'm not suggesting it for myself, but for my readers from other sites. I would like to be able to send out invitations to subscribe to read Blogit, like a newspaper or magazine, for a modest monthly price, say $2.  This will make Blogit much more attractive to readers, especially when they compare the cost of reading Blogit (currently $12.95 month-to-month) to the cost of their Atlantic Monthly, New Yorker or even Architectural Digest.  Of course, they could always upgrade to a writer's subscription if they wish, but I am thinking few of them will and those that do will only do so after several months of reading and conferring with the writers on Blogit.  Those writers, in turn, will have more encouraging reviews of Blogit as a source of income if there is a substantial readership pool from which to draw.


When you think about the ratio of readers to writers at a successful periodical, which is at least in the many tens of thousands in order to pay the writers and the support staff and management through both subscriptions and advertising, Blogit's one reader per writer -- which is closer to one reader to hundreds of writers when considering actually readership of individual writers -- is patently absurd!  And the cause of that perverse ratio for Blogit is the lack of a reader-only subscription.
